Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RESECTION AND NON-RESECTION METHODS FOR EAR RECONSTRUCTION IN ‘DUMBO EAR’ SYNDROME FOLLOWING CURRENT TRENDS IN PERFORMING OTOPLASTY

open access: yesКлінічна та профілактична медицина
Introduction. Deformity of the auricle is not a disease, but it can cause aesthetic, social, and mental disorders. Timely correction of deformations using modern techniques can eliminate undesirable consequences, but the search for the "ideal variant" of

Temporal Filling and Facial Lifting: Rethinking Expectations

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Temporal lifting using injectable fillers has gained considerable attention in facial esthetics, based on the anatomical principle that strategic volumization can produce lifting effects through mechanical transmission of forces. However, there is a significant gap between anatomical plausibility and clinical evidence.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.
